I recall high-school days as most of us girls do - tolerating the wayward glances of boys who were taught by our culture that a woman's worth, along with his own, was measured simply by the amount of sex he could procure for himself.

Then later, as I "blossomed," I was the subject of rude rumors about my sexual promiscuity, before I'd even lost my virginity. My budding sexuality, like so many other young women's, was cut abruptly short by lewd comments, grabbed flesh in a hallway, and what would today be called sexual harassment by boys who were barely old enough to know where a clitoris was, let alone my "back entrance." This all happened before I ever had my first kiss; however, today's adolescents are dealing with a whole different level of sexual abuse, and it's causing permanent physical and emotional damage. You can attribute this to the cyber-world of pseudo-sex, or pornography.

Before, there were "wacked" social norms about sex, but "wacked" doesn't even begin to describe where human sexuality has gone. We now have the Internet - a place where 12-year-olds can log on to watch lurid sexual acts that most of us had never heard of until we were well into our sexual primes. And even themselves become the starring subjects of pornographic films.

Pornography is so rampant now, that pedophilia dark-net websites are exposed almost weekly, and child-trafficking aside, you can see plenty of "extreme" sexual behavior without ever having to use a cryptic password to the dark underbelly of the technocracy. (Over 80 percent of the darknet has been linked to pedophilia, now.)

Pornography is as commonplace now as an innocent first kiss was just a decade ago. Sadly, it is having a profoundly negative effect on young people, with ramifications we never considered or imagined.

Instead of a woman's first sexual experience - already a harrowing experience - being a gentle introduction into feminine creativity and power, young men are expecting girls to "put out on the first date," in ways earlier generations would likely never have wrapped their brains around. They can't tell their parents about this situation because of the shame that accompanies their behavior - often coerced and other times forced into doing things their bodies aren't ready for.

After learning about physical intimacy from a dogging video on his mobile, a young man isn't expecting to cop a feel, but to insert any number of objects including his penis, into a woman's anus. Girls are not going along with this practice because they want to - as that would be consensual - but because it is expected of them.

Doctors are now reporting that even in well-to-do neighborhoods, where generations ago, young girls would be going to ballet lessons and learning to play tennis at the country club, girls are showing up with incontinence, and ripped up anal and vaginal tissue due to being forcibly entered. Is it any wonder we see girls now as young as 11 to 13 experiencing haunting emotional issues that linger for decades?

In a world where beautiful young women are starving themselves to death to be accepted, sexual deviance is the next "upped ante" for them to feel loved and cherished in a society whose morals have become wholly obsolete.

Both young boys and girls now post selfies, attempting to acquire instant gratification, but those pics on Facebook and Instagram are not the half of it.

Recent research conducted by the Universities of Bristol and Central Lancashire found that a whopping fifth of girls have suffered violence or intimidation from their teenage boyfriends, a high proportion of whom regularly view pornography, with one in five boys holding "extremely negative attitudes towards women."

The rise of pornography explains why more than 4 in 10 girls between the ages of 13 and 17 in England say they have been coerced into sex acts, according to one of the largest European polls on teenage sexual experience.

And what are we teaching our young boys? That consensual, non-violent sex is somehow chopped liver compared to sodomy and rape? That a young girl (or boy) is prime meat compared to a mature woman (or man), able to make well-informed decisions and offer her (his) consent to any, and all sexual acts?

The topic of sex has been taboo for centuries. My own mother told me nothing when I became "of age", and simply gave me a dated copy of Our Bodies, Ourselvesand left me to figure things out. But today, young women who aren't even "of age" are expected to engage in sexual acts that are depicted in pornographic rooms run by 45-year-old drug addicts who traffic toddlers to far-away islands so that grown men can hunt them for predatory sexual acts.

If we don't start talking to our adolescent boys - telling them that expecting a 10-year-old girl to have painful anal sex on a first date is ridiculous - even if he's seen it on his computer a thousand times, we're in big trouble. If we don't start breaching the subject with our young daughters, as excruciatingly uncomfortable as it may seem, we're leaving them for the wolves, deviants, and cabal-controlled underworld.

Put simply, our young children deserve better. It's messed up that this is the world we live in, but the truth will set us free. Pornography isn't natural. It allows for no emotional, human connection. What do you want your child's first sexual experience to be like? A trip to the doctor for a permanently ripped anus that requires surgery, or something that still has a touch of innocence, of consensual exploration, and the butterflies of having a very first crush?

This presentation is not an argument against pornography. It was created for anyone who has a porn addiction, or wants to understand pornography addiction.

Science teacher Gary Wilson explains the evolutionary forces behind porn's appeal, how the brain changes in response to super-normal stimulation, what makes today's porn different from static porn of the past, and what you need to know to regain your sense of direction if you're hooked on porn.

Reader Comments

This article seems too focused on a typical feminist's view point... i.e that porn represents training videos for males to perform rape on females(and for females to accept it). Porn just like the MSN has something for everyone... There is sex between a man and a woman on beautiful beaches, there is same sex sex, there is sexting between friends, fantasy hot lines, slave and master, and then there is stalking and voyeurism. And don't forget alien sex screen memories planted during abductions! Porn is dangerous because it can be additive to the user of porn. Though a theory is any addiction can cause super normal stimulation. Especially when it is a habit, and it can go from 0 to 60 on the stimulation track fast. So not sure I agree that porn is more special to cause harm than say a "drug" addition(that they lock people up for). Porn users live out their fantasies on line instead of in reality thus robbing them of "traditional" face-to-face and skin-to-skin contact. Physical rape (as this feminist written article showcases) has existed long before pornography. Calls to outlaw or "protect your children" from porn will do nothing to change the reality of rape or peoples sexual "fantasies" (or their sexuality missions in their lifetime). Similarly, MSN, and movies and propaganda, can only go so far in instilling its disinformation narratives on society by the billionaire corporate oligarchy in their various beastly group organisms.

Society members are lonely and disconnected in a isolationist way through their habitual forced use of smart phones and addictive habits involving social media. Porn just represents another stimulator outlet that is more exciting than real life. Just like social media junkies on facebook or late night binges on junk food. More and more decisions are being presented to users. Soon big brother and the pink lady will be directing us all. When ever we need something they will be there to "help". Hopefully actual feminist "yin" energy of patience and love will show up in electronic form. That way corporate pants suits feminists which are yang in orientation will have an alternative. An alternative in the divine mother.

"I recall high-school days as most of us girls do - tolerating the wayward glances of boys who were taught by our culture that a woman's worth, along with his own, was measured simply by the amount of sex he could procure for himself."

hobnyeba It's a bit silly. Most of our culture teaches us that women are a lot more than their sexual value. People of all temperaments watch porn. And people of all temperaments will give you a wayward glance by the fact of their biology, though lewd comments go too far. (not that I do either *please take my word* *or don't*)

Otherwise she may be right. The only way to kick it may be through analogy. Kind of like how a different addiction might invade the brain. Drugs might be the clearest example but it's not something I'm familiar with. Videogames, though I know they have their uses, are a useful analogy, I think. Playing something like that for hours on end, spills over into reality (and worse, into dreams) and makes it rather depressing. Porn may have some of the same effects.

One could say any habit that you don't learn anything from can be declared an addiction. And any habit that you do learn something from is desire for self-mastery (or at least being in character for this lifetime). So porn habits are not a one size fits all "addiction" phenomena!!!
